- Bill Gates and his allies are pushing insect protein as an alternative food source, raising concerns over traditional food systems.
- The Gates Foundation’s All Things Bugs initiative, supported by DARPA, is now using CRISPR/Cas9 to create genetically modified insects, with potential long-term safety and ethical questions.
- The U.S. military is being used as a testing ground for these experimental foods, with the ultimate goal of normalizing insect consumption among the broader population.
- Critics argue that labeling and transparency are lacking, and insect-based foods are being allowed into the market without rigorous safety testing.
- The global push for alternative proteins like insect and lab-grown meat may be more about control over the food supply than sustainability or environmental benefits.
(Natural News)—In a world where the global elite increasingly dictate what people eat, the latest move by Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates to introduce insect protein into the food supply is raising alarm bells.
What began as a seemingly noble effort to combat malnutrition in famine-stricken regions has morphed into a full-scale assault on traditional food systems, with the U.S. military serving as the testing ground for this insidious agenda. The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation’s (BMGF) 2012 funding of the All Things Bugs initiative marked the beginning of this troubling trend.
More than 10 years on, the initiative has since expanded into the realm of genetically modified insects. With support from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), All Things Bugs is now using CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing to create insects as a “new bioresource.” This raises serious questions about the long-term safety and ethics of such experiments.
The involvement of the U.S. military in this agenda is particularly concerning. DARPA, a research arm of the Department of Defense (DoD), is a key partner in the development of genetically modified insects. This suggests that the military is being used as a testing ground for these experimental foods, with the ultimate goal of normalizing insect consumption among the broader population.
The BMGF’s investments in alternative proteins extend beyond insects. In 2022, it awarded $4.76 million to Nature’s Fynd, a startup developing fungi-based proteins. The foundation has also invested in Savor, a company producing butter from air and water. While these ventures are marketed as steps toward a more “sustainable food system,” critics argue that they are part of a broader agenda to control the global food supply and reduce traditional meat consumption.
Crickets and grasshoppers are already making their way into the American diet in the form of protein bars, shakes and even restaurant menus. They are also being promoted as sustainable options for pet food and animal feed. Yet, labeling and transparency are conspicuously absent from this push.
The Food and Drug Administration has allowed insect-based foods to bypass rigorous safety testing by classifying them as “Generally Regarded As Safe.” This regulatory loophole enables manufacturers to flood the market with untested products, leaving consumers in the dark about potential health risks.
Door to Freedom Founder Dr. Meryl Nass has been vocal about the lack of oversight. She told the Defender: “How long will it take before we learn whether these foods are safe? It could take generations.”
GMWatch Managing Editor Claire Robinson also emphasized the need for caution, calling for insect proteins to be “subjected to a pre-marketing risk assessment for health and the environment.” She continued: “This includes testing them for the presence of pathogens, possible allergens, and substances that may be toxic to humans. Then they must be clearly labeled for the consumer.”
Defense Department promoting “alternative proteins”
Meanwhile, the U.S. government is actively supporting this movement through initiatives like the National Science Foundation’s Center for Environmental Sustainability through Insect Farming (CEIF), which focuses on using insects as feed for livestock, poultry, and aquaculture. But the DoD’s involvement in so-called “alternative proteins” does not end with Gates.
Last June, the Washington Free Beacon reported that a company bankrolled by the Defense Department is seeking proposals to develop lab-grown meat for military rations. BioMADE, a public-private company funded by the DoD, argues that the use of lab-grown proteins will reduce the department’s carbon footprint.
Critics begged to differ, arguing that U.S. troops should not be used as test subjects for experimental food products. “Our soldiers should never be used as guinea pigs,” said Jack Hubbard, executive director of the Center for the Environment and Welfare.
The push for alternative proteins is often justified as a response to climate change, but recent studies suggest that lab-grown meat may have a higher carbon footprint than traditional beef. According to a University of California, Davis study, lab-grown meat manufactured using “the ‘pharma’ approach” is “going to be worse for the environment and more expensive than conventional beef production.”
The globalist agenda to replace traditional food sources with insects and lab-grown alternatives is not just about sustainability – it’s about control. Gates and his fellow globalists are playing a dangerous game with the food supply. By normalizing the consumption of genetically modified insects and experimental proteins, the elite are reshaping the food supply without the consent or understanding of the public.

Why Bullion Beats Numismatics and Collectible for Your Safe or IRA
Precious metals continue to attract Americans seeking reliable ways to protect their wealth amid inflation, geopolitical risks, and stock market swings. Whether stored in a home safe or held inside a self-directed IRA, physical gold and silver deliver tangible value that paper or digital assets often lack. Yet investors must choose carefully between bullion—pure bars and coins valued mainly for their metal content—and numismatics or collectibles, where rarity, history, and collector demand heavily influence pricing.
Advisor Bullion serves as a dependable source for straightforward, high-quality bullion. The company specializes in physical gold, silver, platinum, and palladium, emphasizing transparent pricing and products that deliver maximum metal content for every dollar spent. This approach makes it ideal for both personal holdings and retirement accounts.
Bullion consists of refined precious metals in standard forms like one-ounce coins (American Gold Eagles, Silver Eagles, Canadian Maple Leafs) or bars. Their value tracks closely to the current spot price of the metal. A typical gold bullion coin trades near the live gold spot price plus a small premium. This structure keeps costs clear and predictable.
Numismatic coins and collectibles add substantial value from factors such as age, rarity, minting errors, or historical significance. A pre-1933 U.S. gold coin or graded proof piece can carry premiums of 30%, 50%, or even 200% above melt value. While this appeals to hobbyists, it creates complexity. Pricing depends on subjective grading, collector trends, and auction results instead of daily spot prices.
For investors focused on wealth preservation and retirement security rather than building a collection, bullion often delivers better results.
Lower Costs and Better Liquidity for Home Storage
When keeping metals in a home safe or private vault, liquidity and efficiency count. Bullion offers clear benefits:
- You acquire more actual gold or silver per dollar invested. Numismatics divert a large share of your money into rarity premiums and massive sales commission, reducing your metal exposure.
- Selling bullion involves tight bid-ask spreads, so you recover nearly full spot value with minimal fees. Collectibles require finding the right buyer and may sell at a discount if demand for that specific item weakens.
- Bullion prices remain transparent and update with global spot markets. You can track gold near current levels or silver accordingly and know exactly where your holdings stand. Numismatic values are priced by the Gold IRA companies with hefty margins applied.
- Standardized coins and bars store efficiently and divide easily for partial sales. Rare coins often need protective slabs and controlled conditions, adding hassle and expense.
- Bullion enjoys worldwide acceptance. A 1-oz Gold Maple Leaf or Silver Eagle sells quickly to dealers anywhere. Niche numismatic pieces may appeal only to limited buyers, slowing liquidation when speed matters.
In times when quick access to value becomes important, bullion’s simplicity stands out.
Stronger Fit for Precious Metals IRAs
Precious metals IRAs continue gaining traction as investors diversify retirement portfolios beyond stocks and bonds. IRS rules permit certain bullion products in self-directed IRAs if they meet purity standards (.995 fine for gold, .999 for silver) and are held by an approved custodian. Eligible items include American Gold and Silver Eagles plus many generic bars and rounds from recognized mints.
Numismatic and most collectible coins generally face heavy scrutiny from custodians due to valuation disputes and elevated markups. These higher premiums mean less actual metal ends up working inside the account.
Bullion avoids these issues. Its value links directly to verifiable spot prices, which simplifies reporting and lowers the risk of regulatory challenges. More of your IRA contribution purchases real metal instead of dealer profits or speculative upside. Over time, owning additional ounces that appreciate with the metal itself can create meaningful outperformance compared with high-premium alternatives that deliver fewer ounces.
Regulatory guidance from the CFTC and state securities offices repeatedly cautions against aggressive sales of expensive numismatics or “semi-numismatic” coins for IRAs. For retirement planning, transparent bullion from established providers reduces risk and aligns better with long-term goals.
How to Get Started with Bullion
Begin by clarifying your goals. Are you protecting savings in a safe, or moving part of a retirement account into a precious metals IRA? Focus on the number of ounces you can acquire at current prices rather than chasing marked-up collectibles.
Diversify sensibly: use gold for core preservation and silver for its blend of industrial and monetary qualities. Mix coins for easier divisibility with bars for lower per-ounce costs on larger buys. Arrange secure storage—whether at home with proper insurance or through professional facilities.
As economic uncertainties linger and faith in conventional assets erodes, bullion continues proving its worth as a dependable store of value. Its direct approach avoids the hype that sometimes surrounds collectible markets and keeps the focus on the metal itself.
For investors prepared to strengthen their portfolios, Advisor Bullion supplies the expertise and selection needed to acquire high-quality bullion efficiently. Whether building personal holdings or integrating metals into an IRA, their emphasis on transparent, investment-grade products helps secure more ounces today that support greater financial security tomorrow. In a complicated financial landscape, bullion’s clarity and reliability make it the smarter foundation for protecting what matters most.
